Pregnancy Reality

I'm glad you started this thread, I have not had a wonderful experience 'being' pregnant. I know that in the end it'll be great . But I agree that they really should tell you that being pregnant isn't as wonderful as it sounds. I'm 11 weeks pregnant now, and up until last week I felt terrible. I felt nauseas for most of the day, then come 6/7pm I'd feel really really sick but never able to be sick. The only things that I could stomach for about 3 weeks was, dry EDO crackers, grapefruit and sausage roll (but only the one from Starbucks). Hopefully I'm at the end of feeling crappy now..
Good luck everyone else with finding solutions and congrats.
 
Good luck FishMama and hopefully the "end of crappy" has arrived for you!. I thought I was there, then I ended being sick again tonight after a week of feeling "pretty good". Sigh.
BUT it IS gradually getting better and I'm pretty sure I'm over the worst of it thank goodness!
Good luck everyone also and thanks for all the stories and advice on this thread!
 
Hang in there :)
My the end of crapy was at 20 weeks. When I was 16 weeks I thought I've reached the end turn out the crapy things came back! I lost 6kg during my first trimester.
Now I am slowly gain my weigh back. Gain 4kg so far and I'm almost 24 weeks.
My surival foods soda crackers and wan tan noodle.
Good luck.

Hope everyone feels better soon... I had my 12 week scan yesterday and all good :) yay still feeling good so hopefully I'm done feeling crappy. Lost 5kgs coz I couldn't eat much but crackers and grapefruit. Get all my blood results back today so hopefully those will be good too... Then it's just time to start telling everyone.
 
5kgs! Hope you are feeling much better and it's great when you can finally share the news with friends and family!

My next step is packing away my skinny clothes (maybe never to see the light of day again... Sniff sniff). Already wearing the same loose t-shirts over and over again!
